CARE INFORMATION
CARE INFORMATION
Introduction
Renowned for its softness, warmth, and luxurious feel, Luxury Italian Cashmere is a timeless investment in your wardrobe. However, this delicate fabric requires specific care to retain its exquisite quality, which means that maintaining the beauty and longevity of your Italian Cashmere garments is essential for preserving their elegance.
Learn how to take care of cashmere by following our cashmere care guide:
Hand Washing:
- Necessities: Use a basin or washbowl and a mild detergent.
- Water and Detergent: Wash with cold or lukewarm water to prevent color bleeding or shrinking, using a small amount of mild detergent.
- Washing Method: Gently massage the Italian cashmere wrap, scarf, cardigan, or sweater in the basin, pat stains with detergent, and avoid rubbing to prevent pilling.
- Rinsing: Rinse in clean, cold water without wringing. Repeat until all the detergent is removed.
- Removing Excess Water: Roll the cashmere garment in a towel on a flat surface and press gently to remove water.
Machine Washing:
- Protecting the Cashmere Garment: Place the luxuryItalian cashmere garment in a laundry bag or white pillowcase, optionally with towels in the washer for cushioning.
- Detergent: Use a mild detergent, avoiding fabric softeners.
- Water Temperature and Cycle: Use cold water and select a gentle program with the shortest spin cycle.
- Drying: Never machine dry to avoid damage.
Drying:
- Positioning: Lay the cashmere garment on a clean towel in its original shape.
- Exposure: Avoid direct sunlight or heat sources.
- Drying Method: Air dry the garment, turning it over at least once for even drying, which may take several hours or a day.
Ironing:
- Fabric Steamer: preferred for luxury Italian cashmere such as cashmere wraps and scarves, cashmere ponchos, cashmere sweaters and cashmere cardigans. Hang the garment and steam from a distance, letting it cool before wearing or storing it.
- Ironing: Turn the luxury Italian cashmere garment inside out, cover with a light-colored cloth, and use the iron's lowest setting, ensuring the iron never touches the cashmere directly.
Storage:
- Storage Area: Choose an area that is clean, dry, and away from sunlight, like closet shelves or drawers.
- Method: Fold, don't hang, to prevent stretching.
- Moth Prevention: Store with cedar wood balls to keep fresh and prevent moths and mildew.
Following these comprehensive instructions will help maintain the quality and longevity of cashmere garments.
FAQ: Cashmere Care Instructions
Can Luxury Cashmere be machine washed, or should it be hand-washed only?
Luxury Italian Cashmere is best cared for by hand-washing in cool water with a mild detergent. While some Cashmere items can be machine washed on a delicate cycle with a gentle detergent, hand washing is safer to prevent shrinking and damage. Always check the garment's care label for specific instructions.
What type of detergent is safe for Cashmere?
For Luxury Italian Cashmere, use a mild, gentle detergent specifically designed for delicate fabrics. These detergents are typically free from harsh chemicals and enzymes that can damage Cashmere fibers. Wool and Cashmere shampoos are ideal choices, as they cleanse effectively while maintaining the integrity of the delicate Cashmere fibers.
How can I prevent my Luxury Italian Cashmere from shrinking?
To prevent Cashmere from shrinking, always wash it in cold or lukewarm water and avoid high temperatures. Hand wash gently without excessive agitation. Never wring or twist the fabric. Dry it flat on a towel, away from direct heat and sunlight. Avoiding the dryer is crucial, as heat can cause shrinkage.
Is it safe to use fabric softener on Luxury Italian Cashmere?
It's generally advised to avoid using fabric softeners on Cashmere. Fabric softeners can break down the natural fibers and reduce the material's absorbency and breathability. Instead, opt for a gentle, Cashmere-friendly detergent. Proper washing and rinsing should leave Cashmere soft and luxurious without the need for softeners.
How do I dry Cashmere items without damaging them?
To dry Cashmere without causing damage, gently press out excess water without wringing or twisting. Lay the item flat on a clean, dry towel, and reshape it to its original size and form. Allow it to air dry naturally, away from direct heat or sunlight. Avoid using a tumble dryer, as heat can harm Cashmere fibers.
Can I iron Cashmere, and if so, at what temperature?
Ironing Cashmere is possible, but it requires care. Set the iron to a low heat setting, and ideally, use a pressing cloth between the iron and the Cashmere to protect the delicate fibers. Gently press without dragging the iron across the fabric. Steam can also help remove wrinkles without direct contact.
What is the best way to remove stains from Cashmere?
To remove stains from Cashmere, act quickly. Blot the stain gently with a clean, damp cloth. Avoid rubbing, as it can damage the fibers. For stubborn stains, use a mild detergent and carefully treat the affected area. Rinse thoroughly with cold water and dry as per usual care instructions.
For persistent or difficult stains, professional dry cleaning is recommended.
